Microtech, renowned for its precision-engineered knives, has brought back this iconic out-the-front (OTF) knife with a blend of traditional aesthetics and modern technology.
Design and Features
At first glance, the new Makora may remind enthusiasts of the Microtech Ultratech, but a closer examination reveals both subtle and significant differences. Let's explore these updated features:
-
Dimensions and Weight: The Makora is slightly thicker than its predecessor, yet lighter, offering improved handling and maneuverability.
-
Handle Design: The handle features a peaked design, providing a comfortable and secure grip. Both sides are adorned with carbon fiber inlays, enhancing both aesthetics and durability.
-
Operational Enhancements: Notably, the handle's top and bottom are equipped with holes that, in conjunction with the blade's fluting, make the knife more functional underwater. This unique feature is ideal for users who require reliability in diverse environments.
-
Glass Breaker: An updated glass breaker is integrated into the handle, ensuring that the knife remains a versatile tool in emergencies.
Technological Advancements
Microtech has incorporated advanced technology to refine the Makora's functionality:
-
Nickel Boron Internals: The knife's action has been significantly enhanced by the inclusion of nickel boron internals. This material reduces friction, leading to smoother operation and improved consistency with each deployment.
